A nearly unheard of Halide Black Friday deal is now live. At this time of year the Mac and iOS app deals start to pile in throughout the week, culminating in our annual (and gigantic) roundup of the best, but this year a particularly rare offer on the brilliant Halide photography app has arrived. The 2022 Apple Design Award Winner is now offering its very first sale in four long years on the latest edition of its iPhoneography suite, Halide Mark II – Pro Camera. Head below for more details on this year’s special Halide Black Friday offer. 

Halide Black Friday offer

Lux Optics, the makers of the award-winning app, has now launched the first sale on Halide since 2018. From now through November 30, 2022, you can get two months FREE with an annual membership and the ability to cancel at anytime during these freebie months at no charge.

This essentially gives folks a shot at the premium photography app without spending a penny and with no strings attached. You can even “unlock a special secret black icon after 2 months.” Here’s a closer look at the announcement:

Halide is described as the “the most powerful camera for iPhone” that combines an elegant and simple UI designed for “deliberate and thoughtful photography.” That’s alongside un-matched ProRAW support and much more. Here’s a quick glance at the feature list:

  • Intuitive gesture-based interface, usable with one hand
